A Trip Around the Rink

Two of the NHL’s best clubs meet in Boston on Tuesday night when the Bruins play host to the Sharks and former Beantown superstar Joe Thornton. The Bruins were beaten 4-3 in overtime by the Flyers on Saturday afternoon, but they’re still 6-1-3 in their past 10 outings. The Sharks were also tagged with an overtime loss in their last outing, as the Blue Jackets got by them by a 3-2 score.

There are a half-dozen other games on the NHL’s schedule for Tuesday, including the Red Wings on the road in Nashville. As well, it’s Los Angeles at the Islanders, Colorado at Columbus, Atlanta at Tampa Bay, Toronto at Florida, and Vancouver at St. Louis; the Canucks blasted the Blackhawks 7-3 Saturday night.

Rounding Out the Slate

The Cubs always have their early-season supporters, and this year’s no different with them pegged as the 3/1 Vegas favorites to win the 2009 National League pennant. The defending-champion Phillies are just behind Chicago at 4/1 odds to get back to the World Series, while the Mets and Dodgers are pegged at 5/1 odds. The Diamondbacks round out the first five on the chart, as they sit at 13/2.

The Cardinals have 8/1 odds on that Vegas list right now, while the Brewers are at 15/1, and the Rockies and Braves are both pegged at 18/1. The Marlins and Astros hold down 20/1 odds to get to the World Series, with the Giants at 25/1, the Reds at 40/1, and the Padres at 60/1. The Nationals, as usual, are big ‘dogs at 60/1 odds, but that still puts them ahead of one other team – the 75/1 Pirates.
